A nine-day holiday for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025 could be on the cards for Pakistanis, depending on the official moon sighting and government announcement. The Ruet-e-Hilal Research Council predicts that the Shawwal moon will be visible on March 30, making March 31 the likely date for Eid celebrations across the country.
Expected Holiday Schedule for Eid-ul-Fitr 2025
Typically, the government grants three public holidays for Eid-ul-Fitr. However, if officials announce holidays from March 29 (Saturday) to April 2 (Wednesday) and extend them to include April 3 and 4 (Thursday and Friday), employees could enjoy a nine-day holiday when combined with the weekends.

Travel & Tourism Surge Expected
If the extended holiday is granted, travel across major cities and tourist destinations like Murree, Swat, and northern areas is expected to surge. People planning trips should make early reservations to avoid last-minute price hikes and booking shortages.
